About me:

My passion for technology started with a windows 95 laptop, I loved playing games on it. Interacting with a computer was something unique and I wanted to understand how it worked.

Hoping that I would be able to create things that other people like me love interacting with one day. This led to a growing desire to create my own software. At the age of 12 started out with personal projects like plugins in games, to mods and eventually my own games.

As I progressed and learned more about Desktop Development and Web Applications. I am confident that my knowledge can bring value to businesses. Or lend advice and inspiration to fellow programmers.

To this day an avid Windows Power User and a self taught using their tools.

Working with:

• Using Git to push, pull, merge, commit, comment, review and publish builds.
• Automated continues integration using Microsoft Azure Cloud platform.
• DevOps workflow to manage branches and incoming tasks.
• Products including: Windows 10, Visual studio (code), Microsoft Office, SQL server

Learning:

• Using open source materials (frameworks, repositories, tutorials), I manage to reverse engineer their inner workings and apply knowledge in new projects making them more usable and more structured.
• Personal strife to do better the next day and look for new challenges to raise the bar.
• Naturally eager to new technology. While eager to experiment, still improving on the original foundation as well.

Expertise:

• Front-end user interface design, back-end business logic and database engineering.
• Creating Authentication Flow using OAuth, Owin and Identity.
• Setting up Authorization Permissions within application by User Claims or Roles.
• Integrating security features like message encryption and hashing with the latest available libraries.
• Creating the supporting architecture and foundation for communicating with and consuming Rest Api's.
• Optimizing high traffic code paths and load balancing. Static Asset optimizations with automated tasks.

What am I working on right now?

First of all thank you for taking the time to read up until here. Currently I'm looking for small businesses that are interested in creating a Portal Hub to showcase information or connect with external API's. You can find a demo of my project here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLY-LJopTYDpdsu0G0L0bcHeP97e0SIt70

My Web Application is based on the latest asp core technology. Has a strong structure and allows easy expansion or integration of existing business logic. If you fancy my experience or the project I'll happily explain more in detail.

Communication:

I'm a well spoken and customer facing developer, translating their demands to functionalities that don't impede usability. And documenting parts that are otherwise not clear.

While my code generally speaks for itself, it will always talk back to other programmers through the form of comments.

My availability allows me to respond to messages quickly and with clear answers. I do not hesitate to ask questions and have experience leading a team to a final product.
